Description

List of steps to reproduce:

Load https://ws-export.wmcloud.org/opds/fr/Bon_pour_export.xml (which is the OPDS export file for the French Wikisource)

XML error at line 27, column 164427

What should have happened instead?:

Seudo renamed this task from HMLT entity error in OPDS export for Wikisource to HTLM entity error in OPDS export for Wikisource.Feb 14 2022, 8:33 AM

A fix has just been merged https://github.com/wikimedia/ws-export/pull/397 with a nicer follow up https://github.com/wikimedia/ws-export/pull/398

This will be fixed in the next WS-export update.

The fix is deployed in version 2.10.2, and I'm re-running the OPDS build now. The generation time is shown at https://ws-export.wmcloud.org/opds/fr/ (it's currently 2022-02-15 00:16 Z so that'll update soon).

Looks like all is well again with the OPDS feed.
